Zorin runs well on laptops but Desktop PC another story

Hello friends,

I am a long term Ubuntu user and on the laptop ran beautifully until it was attacked by a "Bomb" virus - but that's just BTW
Todays problem is Zorin OS 12.1 64-bit runs beautifully on my HP-Compaq-dc7700p-Small-Form-Factor - that is until it hiccups
falters, then hangs
I have noticed this behaviour using Ubuntu on other clone motherboards as well and put it down to lack of a motherboard driver
as Bill's software doesn't behave like that (windows et al)
OR a conspiracy on USA style machines towards Linux - take your pick or take me down ;-)

I have read the info requirements in order to receive timely Help and Support :- this is VERY big but you asked for it huh ?
DUCK.......

The first thing that struck me ... (no not a brick! :lol: ) was the date of your BIOS of 2007 and "is upgradeable" which begs the question.... Have you EVER upgraded the BIOS on that rig? :o ;) :D

A bit too much info for me to find the specs so how much RAM does this machine have?

It would appear he has 2.5 Gb if you look carefully enough. ;-)

Swarfendor437 - Full marks sir ! I once tried a BIOS upgrade/date but got nowhere - how important is that ?

MBMz10 - 3GB of RAM cards in the four slots

Swarfendor437 - So you guarantee that a BIOS upgrade will sort that hang problem ? If so can you help me out with that procedure ? I do have a new floppy drive which can be installed in place of the CDRom and a box of good floppy diskettes so let's go sir

Swarfendor437

I'm not saying the BIOS upgrade will definitely resolve all issues but certainly an update cannot harm provided it is done correctly - the procedure should be laid out clearly on your Desktop Manufacturer's website - I'll take a look in a mo - just checking other posts. ;) :D

OK, I am not sure which one you need from here:

The options are:

Screenshot from 2017-03-28 21-50-33.png


I downloaded both items to see if they were zip files - they are .exe files which might suggest you need to install the updates via Windows? I put in Windows 7 32-bit based on the hardware information you provided. ;) :D

It doesn't look like the support section of HP is very helpful either!

Swarfendor437 you are amazing - all this time I have been using Zorin without updating the BIOS because (with careful use) the "Hang" problem has not been that much of a nuisance - but now that I'm ready to do some serious work it will be ;-) So "once more into the breach dear friends" I will let you know how it goes - OK to save space here is the latest tagged on here - I have done all that Saviour Swarfendor437 showed me how-to-do - Took me many hours of additional research because Desktop machines are a bit different to Laptops - But I got there in the finish - Prepared a USB flash drive with FREEDOS to boot from and then pasted the HP extracted files from both of the available downloads. The first download file contained the "flashbin" for my machine's BIOS and the second download was just the screen image which displays the set-up options at switch on.
The BIOS-flash operation ran beautifully without any problem at all - I then expectantly re-booted the PC to check of course - Hey presto ! everything is the same as before - I have successfully flashed the BIOS with exactly the same 2007 BIOS release that the machine already had !!! Hewlett Packhard never bothered to release a BIOS update for my machine !!! If it ain't broke then don't fix it huh ? Cheers.... (BooHoo)
